Archived Artifacts from an Archaeological Survey at the Original Chenega Village Site

Archived Artifacts from an Archaeological Survey at the Original Chenega Village Site:  Prior to the construction of a pavilion on Chenega Island at the original village site, the National Forest Service conducted an archaeological survey where over 400 artifacts were found. Among them were chips of plates and cups, kitchen pots and ladles, guns, buttons, marbles, oil cans, perfume bottles and other remnants of Chenega’s past. Elders were filmed telling stories of the days these artifacts were once a part of daily life.
